Q:  Has anyone installed any version of FreeBSD on a DL980 G7 from HP
yet?  Has anyone installed any version of FreeBSD on a DL580 G7 from HP?

HP testers report that 7 nor 8 install without the kernel
'insta-panicing' across all CPUS at the same time.

I'm going to ask that they try the latest 9 snap shot and then kill the
project at this time.
